The
tiny village with a population of 4,500, mostly farmers who grow wheat, jowar
and cotton, is prospering and looking forward to a sea-change. Dholera, which
is situated in Ahmedabad district in the Gulf of Khambhat, is in proximity to
road transport infrastructure and sea-port facilities. And what's more, the
government has proposed to build an international airport near Fedara, 30 km
from Dholera ensuring that the BESTPROPERTY DEALS become the USP of this region.
The
proposed special investment region (SIR) will be the first-of-its-kind to be
created in the state. The land prices here have quadrupled in the last two
years. Soon there will be 185 kilometres of six-lane roads. The roads are being
built at a cost of Rs 1,584 crore to be linked with the Delhi-Mumbai dedicated
freight corridor.Dholera also has greater possibilities of building modern port
facilities. The Adani group might consider plans to build an eco-friendly port
here.
The
entire city will run on a BRT system that can be converted into a light rail
transport system in the future Every housing, office, and industrial complex
will be within 10 minutes walking distance of some form of public transport. Dholera
will be connected to the world through a new international airport on its
outskirts, to the rest of the country through a new railway line and to
Ahmedabad through a ten-lane highway.
The manufacturing zone has been planned
keeping in mind the windflow pattern so that industrial pollution flies out of
the city. All utilities including parking spots will be underground so that
there is enough space to build pavements for pedestrians and dedicated cycle
tracks It will be divided into five business districts and two knowledge zones.
The
city will rely heavily on solar energy for its power requirements although a
dedicated 1, 300 MW power plant is planned. A hierarchy of roads, from the main
ten-lane artery cutting the city into two to four-lane interior streets, is
planned for smooth traffic flow and proper intra-city connectivity.
India’s
is urbanizing,so much that estimates suggest nearly 600 million of Indians will
be living in cities by 2030, up from 290 million as reported in the 2001
census. Alongside the hordes of Indians go the jobs and the money as well
Dholera SIR would generate 70% of the new jobs created by 2030, produce
more than 70% of the Indian gross domestic product and drive a fourfold
increase in per capital incomes across the country.
It
will have modern waste management systems and facilities to recycle sewage
water for industrial use. Housing has been so designed through the mixed use
pattern that the work place is close to the residential complex. This might
help in increase in INVESTMENT IN RESIDENTIAL, INDUSTRIAL AND COMMERCIAL POLT IN DHOLERA SIR.
